compound-eye - Senior Engineer, Computer Vision (Remote - US)
Requirements
• 3–6+ years of hands-on experience in computer vision or robotics perception, with depth in: • Pose estimation, SLAM, Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO), and 3D reconstruction • Nonlinear optimization (e.g., bundle adjustment, factor graphs) • Classical state estimation and Kalman filters (EKF) • Sensor fusion combining IMU and cameras in lidar-free environments • Multi-view geometry and camera calibration • Real-time perception systems for autonomous vehicles or robotics • You’ve derived or adapted algorithms, not just applied them. You’re comfortable with manifold optimization, uncertainty propagation, and error-state representations. When something breaks, you go back to the math. • Strong foundations in: • Linear algebra, probability, and estimation theory • Analyzing numerical data and debugging algorithm behavior • This role is fully remote and open to anyone based in the United States. You’ll travel to Redwood City, CA four times per year for company on-sites, and up to three additional times per year for conferences or customer demos. All travel is covered by Compound Eye.
Responsibilities
• Design and advance algorithms for pose estimation, SLAM, Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO), and 3D reconstruction • Build and tune navigation filters including EKF and other classical state estimation approaches • Own sensor fusion pipelines that combine IMU and camera data in lidar-free setups • Develop and maintain multi-view geometry and camera calibration systems • Drive real-time perception solutions for autonomy and robotics applications • Analyze algorithm performance and failure modes, and translate findings into concrete improvements • Help grow and mentor a team of similarly-qualified engineers
Benefits
• Base salary: $155,000 to $205,000, depending on experience. • Strong Incentive Stock Options (ISO) • Medical, dental, and vision insurance • Annual home office stipend • Employer-paid long-term disability, short-term disability, and life insurance • 401(k) with employer match after 6 months • Flexible PTO and 8 holidays + 2 week winter break • Paid family leave • Quarterly onsites in San Francisco • We're looking for a great engineer to join our US team of 20. Our mission is to teach machines to see. Our culture is based on transparency, mutual respect, mutual accountability, and valuing great ideas no matter where they come from. We already have revenue and our Series A round was led by a tier one VC. We are a remote-first company with employees across the United States. We had remote employees long before the pandemic and our team is now distributed across three states. We will ensure you have everything you need to work from home and the option to work from an office when it is safe to do so. We also offer competitive benefits including comprehensive health care plans, 401k with matching, flexible schedules, and discretionary PTO. • Compound Eye is committed to building a diverse and inclusive work environment. We understand that no candidate is perfectly qualified for any job and experience comes in different forms. We encourage you to apply if you see yourself being successful in this position.
